Description

Method for realizing high-precision indoor distance measurement based on orthogonal diversity technology
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of wireless communication, in particular to a method for realizing high-precision indoor distance measurement based on an orthogonal diversity technology.
Background
The mature development of satellite positioning systems such as GPS (global positioning system) Beidou and the like enables the accuracy of outdoor positioning to be accurate to a decimeter level. Because the satellite is mainly contributed to be positioned in the overhead space of a user during satellite positioning, when the user arrives indoors, the satellite signal is shielded by a building and cannot reach directly; the attenuation of the electromagnetic wave is fast when the electromagnetic wave is diffracted indoors, and the signal is attenuated weakly when the signal reaches about one meter. In addition, in indoor places such as underground malls and parking lots, satellite signals cannot be received basically, and the demand for indoor positioning is more and more strong, so that the indoor positioning is a great supplement to the satellite positioning. The positioning technology is premised on realizing the distance between a node to be positioned and a node with a known position and then realizing combined positioning according to multiple points. Time of arrival (TOA) ranging is an important method for indoor positioning, and this method uses the communication Time difference between ranging nodes to calculate the relative distance, but the accuracy of this ranging method is always limited by the factors such as communication bandwidth, indoor multipath effect, and obstruction.
One method for improving the accuracy of indoor distance measurement is to increase the communication bandwidth, which means to improve the complexity of the design of the radio frequency front end and the product cost, and the fundamental reason for improving the bandwidth and increasing the accuracy is that as the bandwidth increases, the occupied time of the pulse signal is extremely short, and the receiving and transmitting end can effectively identify the multipath signal, thereby overcoming the influence of the multipath effect on the accuracy to a greater extent. On the other hand, the antenna diversity technology is also an effective method for resisting the multipath effect, the multi-antenna diversity is adopted at the distance measurement node, the multipath effect can be effectively reduced, and therefore the indoor distance measurement precision is improved.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to realize high-precision indoor distance measurement and control cost.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a method for realizing high-precision indoor distance measurement based on an orthogonal diversity technology comprises the following steps:
(1) at least two distance measuring nodes are arranged indoors, and each distance measuring node is provided with two antennas with orthogonal polarization;
(2) combining the antennas in any two ranging nodes by controlling a radio frequency switch to obtain 4 double-antenna combinations;
(3) calculating TOA results for several times under each double-antenna combination, namely calculating the flight time of signals according to the difference between the signal sending time and the arrival time, and multiplying the flight time by the flight speed of electromagnetic waves 3x108m/s, measuring and calculating to obtain a single distance, then averaging the measured and calculated data for multiple times to obtain a ranging value under each antenna combination, and obtaining 4 groups of average value data in total;
(4) and calculating the average value of the 4 groups of data again to obtain the relative distance between the two ranging nodes.
Preferably, the two orthogonally polarized antennas are one horizontally polarized antenna and one vertically polarized antenna.
Preferably, each horizontally polarized antenna is parallel to each other.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects: by adding the orthogonal antenna, errors caused by multipath effects in different polarization modes are comprehensively considered to be mutually offset, and a more accurate distance is obtained.

When the distance measurement nodes are arranged, the antennas 1-2 and 2-2 (two horizontal polarization antennas) are ensured to be parallel to each other.
